By acknowledging Kenyan fans in an artiste's success, he urges artists to show gratitude to their followers and give back to the community that has contributed to their achievements.

He advises artistes to respect and cherish the praise and recognition they receive, viewing it as a manifestation of God's blessings.

"When God anakuraise through your fans, respect them. Please please please, fame isikuingue ukaanza kiburi. Internet Never forgets. Happy Sabbath," he said.

Ondimu warns that any negative behaviour or disrespectful actions can be quickly documented and spread across the internet, potentially harming an artist's image and career.

Ondimu's Facebook post has sparked a wave of reactions, with many applauding his wisdom and insight, acknowledging the importance of investing wisely and staying humble.

Ondimu asks colleagues to stop entering people's vehicles

Earlier, the administration police officer also urged traffic police officers to exercise caution while undertaking their duties.

In a Facebook post, Ngare pleaded with traffic officers to stop entering people's vehicles by force to enforce traffic rules.

"If you have to get into someone's car in the event you find them on the wrong, then do it systematically, explaining to the car owner their fault. Stop getting into someone's car as if it's yours," Ngare said.

Ngare advised that instead of a traffic officer engaging in a fight with a traffic offender, the officer can take note of the vehicle's registration number and charge the suspect later.
